Pigeon Post Orders Shipped Fast by Carrier Birds
An old described practice recounts Mr Harris and his son using homing pigeons to deliver orders to a market town. Pigeons carry messages in cases to a shop, then return with deliveries, sometimes taking hours but easing distant customers. The method reduced reliance on messengers and long drives, with carriers sometimes traveling over miles to collect and relay orders.
